A Memory of Stella’s First Lost Tooth … by Stella Zou Tyler Parkhurst - President Michael Kupfer - Vice President I don’t remember the exact age, but when I was a little girl, I can remember the Martha Caswell - Secretary pains. My tooth was loose for a long time, and the tooth was too strong to fall out. Every day, I felt a lot of butterflies in my stomach because I was nervous about my tooth. One Shauna Brown - Treasurer day when I had a meal, I chewed some firm food. Suddenly, I bit on what felt like a Christine Albert stone. ”Oh my God! My tooth finally fell out." My parents were so excited and told me, “You grew up! This is your first baby Christopher Burns tooth. Go and throw it up on the roof. That means your new tooth will grow well.” Morton Cherim But we were living in a huge building, so I just threw it up in the air and my mother Maria Faskianos stored it in a box. A top tooth you throw up to the roof; a bottom tooth you throw down on the Felicia LaBranche ground. It is the superstition in China. That’s our culture. As the times change, we do Diane Lambert that just as a symbol. The buildings are high now. We can’t throw our teeth up on the Vincent McGroary roof. You would have to be a superman to do that.

  • Historic Preservation Act Introduction
    Introduction Section 106 – an overview The Mandate Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act requires that any project that will be federally-funded or have significant federal oversight must be reviewed for its impact to potentially significant historic resources. Consideration must be given to avoiding negative impacts. The term “historic” includes architectural and archeological resources. A significant historic resource is one that is either listed, or determined eligible for listing, on the National Register of Historic Places. Legislative Authority Section 106 is part of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended and is codified in 36 CFR Part 800. It outlines the procedure for the review of historic properties on projects with federal involvement. Section 110 of that same act outlines the review for historic properties that have been determined National Historic Landmarks – an elevated designation that indicates the property is of national importance. There are only 40 National Historic Landmarks in Maine, compared to nearly 15,000 National Register listed properties within the state. Types of properties protected Section 106 regulations do not define the eligibility criteria for the National Register of Historic Places, these criteria are defined in separate regulation by the Keeper of the National Register. For the most part, properties must be at least 50 years of age before they can even be considered as potentially significant. The property must meet one of the following four criteria and must also
